When should I get a shipping quote?

I just purchased a 2021 M2 Comp that I need to have transported from Mississippi to Oregon some 2600 miles. I intend to use a non-broker company that can do enclosed shipping like Intercity or Reliable.

My car is currently on the boat headed towards Port Brunswick with an estimated arrival of 11/12/20. Since car transport quotes seem to change daily if not hourly, when would be the best time to request a quote? Is it better to ask way in advance similar to buying air plane tickets? Or should I wait until the car lands at the dealership in a couple weeks?

Thanks,
-Marc
